The cycle duration indicated on the display or instruction manual is an estimate based on standard conditions. The actual duration may vary in relation to several factors, such as the temperature and pressure of the incoming water, ambient temperature, amount of detergent, load quantity and type, load balancing and any additional options selected. The values given for programmes other than the Eco 40-60 programme are indicative only.

1) Eco 40-60 - Test wash cycle in compliance with EU Ecodesign regulation 2019/2014.

The most efficient programme in terms of energy and water consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.

Note: spin speed values shown on the display can slightly differs from the values stated in the table.

FIRST-TIME USE

Once the appliance has been installed, and before it is used for the first time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, by setting the “2” cycle.

the START/PAUSE

indicator light will also flash.

-Open the door. Load the laundry while making sure not to exceed the maximum load quantity indicated in the Wash Cycle Table.

-Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant compartments as described in “DETERGENT DISPENSER DRAWER” section.

-Close the door.

-Set the WASH CYCLE knob to the desired cycle.

-Set the desired temperature.

-Set the desired spin speed.

-Select the desired options.

- Press the START/PAUSE		button to start the wash cycle; the relative
indicator light will light up		steady green and the door will lock (
indicator light on).
PAUSING A CYCLE
To pause the wash cycle, press the START/PAUSE				button again; the
indicator light will flash amber. If the indicator light is not lit, the door

may be opened. To start the wash cycle from the point at which it was

interrupted, press the START/PAUSE button again.

OPENING THE DOOR, IF NECESSARY

Once a cycle starts, the indicator light turns on to signal that the door cannot be opened. While a wash cycle is running, the door remains locked. To open the door while a cycle is under way, for example, to add

or remove garments, press the START/PAUSE		button to pause the
cycle; the indicator light will flash amber. If the		indicator light is not lit,
the door may be opened. Press the START/PAUSE				button again to
continue the cycle.
CHANGING A RUNNING WASH CYCLE

To change a wash cycle while it is in progress, pause the washing machine

using the START/PAUSE		button (the relative indicator light will flash
amber), then select the desired cycle and press the START/PAUSE
button again.

! To cancel a cycle that has already begun, press and hold the ON/OFF button. The cycle will be stopped and the machine will switch off.

END OF THE CYCLE

Once the cycle terminates the END indicator light will light up; when the indicator light switches off, the door may be opened. Open the door, unload the laundry and switch off the machine. If you do not press ON/ OFF button, the washing machine will switch off automaticallyafter

about a 10 minutes.

OPTIONS

-If the selected function is not compatible with the programmed wash cycle, the corresponding indicator light will flash and the function will not be activated.

-If the selected function is not compatible with another function which has been selected previously, the indicator light corresponding to the first function selected will flash and only the second function will be activated; the indicator light corresponding to the enabled option will remain lit.

Delay timer

To set a delayed start for the selected programme, press the corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period has been reached. When this option is enabled, the symbol lights up on the display. To remove the delayed start option press the button until the text “OFF” appears on the display.

Extra Wash

Enable the Extra Wash option for very dirty items, where compatible. Press this option to let the cycle automatically re-adjust all wash parameters through a longer lasting cycle. The option always leaves the temperature unchanged, while the spin cycle is automatically brought back to maximum levels. The user can set the spin cycle back to the desired value at any time.

The option saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry - an advantage both to the environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the same average time of a standard cycle.

For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a liquid

detergent.

Temperature

Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Wash Cycle Table).

The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash .

The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the maximum value set for each wash cycle.
